Remove the USB leads from the back of the tower, run this then check it before doing the updates

You can use this guide to repair XP

Possibly, you will need to press the start button and keep tapping the delete key, (possibly F2) until the PC enters set up. Change the boot order to CD ROM Drive then hard drive, press F10 then press enter, load the XP CD then type Y then press enter, as it reboots, look for press any key to load from CD, press enter

You will need the XP product key to complete this

If you have audio / video files which are subject to DRM you should check with the provider for known issues with performing an XP repair install

It seems to go crazy when I attempt to play a game from a dvd. It lets me install off a dvd but not actually play a game. It appears even when I do not use the dvd drive but it seems to go absolutely nuts when I try to play a game.

Hello, Imabadmormon. As Keith said, you definitely have Malware on that computer. You need to follow as much of the "Start Here" topic as you can. If there are steps you cannot perform, that's ok. Just do as much as you can, and then get a topic started in the Malware Forum. One of our trained staff will be glad to help you clean your computer up.

For the record, the "home" of HijackThis is with its creator, Merijn. No one forum can claim to be the home of HJT. There are TONS of forums that read HJT logs, and I'd be very interested to see a link to a topic where you were declared to be malware-free, when it is very obvious you are not.
